| Soundsmith Progression: MIMC Star > Sussurro Mk II Fantastic! Thanks @audioquest4life . You have a Ruby Z too? That's another Benz I was lusting after! From the sound of it, though, I should be pretty happy with the MkII. It arrived today! | |
| Soundsmith Progression: MIMC Star > Sussurro Mk II @audioquest4life, I know slaw asked a little while ago, but any further observations you have on the sound of the Sussurro MkII compared to the LP-S would be most welcome. I use a Wood SL right now, and was looking for a step up to either the MkII... | |
| Where to go from XP-15? XP-17? XP-25? Yes, Mark has helped me over the years with my current Pass gear. I'll have to give him a call, but it's always good to try and get additional thoughts from folks who've had an opportunity to hear this stuff. | |
| Where to go from XP-15? XP-17? XP-25? Raul, have you had a chance to hear the 17 by comparison? There's no doubt in my mind the XP-25 is better than my 15, but I haven't gotten a clear sense of the 17 yet. | |

| VPI Classic vs Clear Audio Wood I find VPI tables to be somewhat lacking in sparkle so I'd get the ClearAudio Concept Wood.Not sure I necessarily agree. While I've only heard the Concept Wood at shows, I do own the Classic 3 (with a Zephyr Mk.II) and an Avenger. In neither case ... | |
| VAS (Steven Leung) cartridge repair/retipping service? Steve does great work. | |
| Lyra Etna SL vs. Transfiguration Proteus + Koetsu Urushi I had and really liked my Koetsu RSP, until I brought in both the Benz Gullwing and LPS. I preferred both of the Benz cartridges at a lower cost over the Koetsu. Sorry to go OT, but Tom I'd like to hear how the Gullwing and LP-S were similar / dif... | |
| VPI scout, pivot spike burr for scout owners be aware of this tzh21y, how did you eventually find it? Did you use a magnifier? If so, what type? Did you feel it with a fingernail? | |
| Need help and advice on a VPI 3D arm +1. Send it back and get a replacement if necessary. It is defective from the sound of it. VPI will not do you wrong. | |
| VPI or Pro-ject exron, your opinion is as valid as it needs to be for your listening tastes and your system. It would be interesting to understand what you prefer in the Pro-ject over the VPI. | |
| Does anyone have an opinion about the new P S Audio Bridge 2 ? The Bridge 2 does gapless beautifully. More stable than the original Bridge and it sounds better too. | |
| Help me choose a mono cartridge @smoffat, I tried a Quintet Mono and an AT33MONO on my VPI Classic 3, using arms that were best matched to either cartridge. The AT33MONO is relatively light and of low compliance so it matched best with my SS black damped Classic arm; the Ortofon... | |
